      Their leadership doesn’t even like to hang out in NK. It’s weird, at this point North Korea is basically a resource colony, just with oppressors who are (nominally) domestic instead of the European inbreds we usually associate with that.

      That is to say, the nukes exist to protect the criminal enterprise, and there’s no universe where the elites would care enough about anything other than comfort and covering their ass to do a first strike.

      North Korea and Kim Jong Un know that the moment that they send nukes, nukes are sent to them. South Korea understands the same.
